Covered Patio Builders in Georgetown, TX
For 40+ years, All Seasons has built custom covered patios for Georgetown homeowners. 5,000+ outdoor projects completed across Central Texas. Fixed pricing, full warranties, same crew start-to-finish.
Most patio covers in Georgetown need a City of Georgetown permit, filed through MGO Connect, and the city lists about 10 business days of review for patio covers and pergolas. That is faster than a deck. The harder parts are usually the roof tie-in on single-story homes and, in Sun City, getting Modifications Committee approval first.
Permits and inspections in Georgetown
Patio covers here are reviewed under the 2021 IRC and get a pre-pour inspection before footings are poured, a setback inspection, and a final. We draw the site plan with setbacks shown, submit through MGO Connect, and schedule each inspection so the crew is not waiting on one.
If you live in Sun City, the community reviews exterior changes through its own Modifications Committee, and that approval comes before the city permit. We prepare that package too. We do not guess at its rules; we build the submittal from the committee's current requirements for your home.
Single-story rooflines in Sun City and Berry Creek
Many Georgetown homes are single-story with long, low eaves. A patio roof tied in below that eave can end up too flat to drain, or low enough to feel cramped. Our usual answers are a low-slope insulated panel that drains at a gentle pitch, or a gable cover that rises above the eave and ties into the main roof with proper flashing and matched shingles.
A gable adds height and light and reads as part of the house. It costs more than a flat panel cover because of the framing and roofing. We price both so you can compare.
Limestone in the old town, clay in the new subdivisions
Older parts of Georgetown sit close to limestone, so footings are drilled into rock and drainage under the cover is rarely an issue. Several newer subdivisions sit on clay, where footings need depth and roof runoff has to be carried away from the slab by gutters and downspouts.
For price planning, a 12x20 aluminum cover typically runs $15,000 to $22,000 and a 14x24 cedar beam patio $28,000 to $38,000. Georgetown owners who want low upkeep usually pick aluminum or insulated panels over cedar, since those need no staining.
Older Georgetown homes and the historic district
Downtown Georgetown and the streets around it have older homes, some inside the city's historic overlay. Exterior additions there may need design review before the building permit, and that review looks at scale, roof form, and materials. A cover that echoes the house, pitched roof, painted or cedar posts, trim that matches, fits that setting better than a flat metal panel.
Older framing also needs a look before anything is attached to it. Rafter sizes and wall construction vary a lot in homes built before modern codes. We open the connection area, confirm what is there, and reinforce it or build a freestanding cover set just off the wall if the existing structure cannot take the load.
We Know Georgetown Backyards
Georgetown splits in two below the grass. West of I-35 you often hit limestone a few inches down. East of the interstate, Blackland Prairie clay runs deep. That one fact shapes every deck, patio cover and pergola we build here, along with Sun City's own review step and the historic overlay districts around the Square. We build decks, covered patios, pergolas, gazebos and screened porches across Georgetown from our shop in Liberty Hill.
Permits, HOAs, soil and local building tips for Georgetown
"The first thing I want to know in Georgetown is which side of I-35 you're on. West side, we're usually drilling footings into rock. East side, we're digging through clay that moves every time it rains after a dry spell. A lot of folks here are also done with staining, so composite comes up in almost every conversation."

Why Covered Patios Matter Here
In Texas, an uncovered south- or west-facing patio is unusable 6 months of the year. It's simply too hot. A properly designed patio cover can reduce temperatures underneath by 20-30 degrees and cut your home cooling costs by blocking direct sun on windows and doors. It transforms dead space into living space.
Reduce Cooling Costs
A patio cover blocking afternoon sun on windows and doors can noticeably reduce your AC load. We have had customers report 15-20% drops in summer electric bills.
Usable Year-Round
With proper design, your covered patio becomes a three-season room - or four seasons with added features. Rain, shine, or Texas heat, you'll use this space.
Outdoor Kitchen Ready
We coordinate gas lines, electrical, and plumbing during construction. Want a built-in grill, refrigerator, or pizza oven? We plan the infrastructure from day one.
Engineered for Your Home
Proper attachment requires structural engineering specific to your home. We handle the calculations, permits, and inspections - protecting your home and your investment.
